Evenflo Discovery 5 Infant Car Seat - Sheffield

This car seat has to be one of my least favorites. The design is terrible. The car seat literally rocks into the base under a catch, making it difficult to place the car seat into the base and remove it from the base. Add a heavy baby and your headache has increased. The fact that the car seat rocks into the base makes it no safer than any other car seat out there, it just makes it a PAIN to use!

I bought this for my step-daughters new baby boy and she seems to be very pleased with it. She said that it was easier to carry then her old one and she even found the stroller that matches and purchased that. I looked for a couple of days in town and nobody seemed to have anything that was even close in price to this one or that was even in stock. This worked out really well as I feel I got a great price, free shipping and they sent it right to her door. So much easier then shopping in town.

Not happy with this one. I'm returning it to the store to get a better one. When you install it with the vehicle seatbelt it fits snugly and won't budge for a side or front impact, but you can easily lift the thing up from the front. I don't understand how this can be safe.

Also it is a pain to fit the seat into the base. You have to rather violently and noisily unclasp it from the base - not a good choice if you're hoping to keep the baby asleep. It also takes a good deal of practice to fit this thing INTO the base.

Very annoying all around. I wish this had been better.
